STAFF REPORT
Project Manager: Jennifer Prochazka, Planner Report Date: June 27, 2005
Email: jprochazka @cstx.gov Meeting Date: July 7, 2005
Item: Presentation, discussion, and possible action on a Preliminary Plat of the
Callaway Subdivision, Phase 2, consisting of 1 lot on 13.799 acres, generally
located on the east side of Marion Pugh Drive, approximately 500' south of the
intersection of George Bush Drive.
Applicant: Rabon Metcalf, P.E., Rabon Metcalf Engineering, agent for ACC OP
(Callaway Villas) LP, Property Owner.
Staff Recommendations: Staff recommends approval of the Preliminary Plat
as submitted.
Item Summary: This item is for consideration of a Preliminary Plat for one R -6
High- Density Multifamily lot for the development of an apartment complex. This
plat includes a portion of the recently abandoned Luther Street Right -of -Way.
The plat is in compliance with the Subdivision Regulations.
Comprehensive Plan Considerations: The Land Use Plan designates this
property as Residential Attached. Marion Pugh Drive is designated as a major
collector on the Thoroughfare Plan and Wellborn Road is designated as a major
arterial.
Item Background: The property was annexed in to the City and zoned Industrial
in 1958. When the zoning was changed to M -2, the district also included C -1
uses. In 1984 an amendment was made to the Zoning Ordinance that prohibited
C -1 uses in M -2 zones, however, this particular property was specifically
exempted from the exclusion of C -1 uses in an M -2 zone, and allowed the
General Commercial uses. With the adoption of the Unified Development
Ordinance, City Staff worked with the property owners by giving them the choice
of retaining the M -2 classification without the commercial uses or being rezoned
to C -1 to include the commercial uses. The property was zoned C -1 with the
adoption of that Ordinance. The property was zoned R -6 High- Density
Multifamily in June 2005.
Luther Street was closed in this area in the 1990s and the right -of -way was
formally abandoned in June 2005.
Related Advisory Board Recommendations: The Parks Board recommends
fee in lieu of land dedication.
Commission Action Options: The Commission has final authority over the
Preliminary Plat. The options regarding the Preliminary Plat are:
■ Approval
■ Denial
